Will ship the day after your purchase, get it fast!When it comes to interesting issues, it does not get much better than the 1900-O over CC Morgan dollar. The official story of the 1900-O/CC can be located in the Mint Director's report of 1899 where it is announced that as of June 30, 1899, the Carson City Mint was no longer a mint even though in reality it had stopped making coins after 1893.Ending Carson City's role as a mint saw some 5 million of its coins shipped to other vaults including the Treasury, where later they would become the bulk of the GSA sales of the 1970s. There were a number of dies that had never been used at the Carson City mint, so it was decided to fit them with an "O" mintmark so that they could still be of some use.In a strict sense, the 1900-O/CC is not required to have a complete Morgan dollar collection. That said, it's hard to imagine any Morgan dollar collector not wanting the 1900-O/CC as it's an extremely interesting coin. In addition, that "CC" mintmark under the "O" really helps to tell a story of the problems that saw the Carson City Mint close long before its time. That just adds to the interest in what is literally a piece of history in silver.
